Chemical Structure

2-(2-bromopyridin-4-yl)acetonitrile CAS 312325-74-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-(2-bromopyridin-4-yl)acetonitrile is closely related to a nitrile group, bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-(2-bromopyridin-4-yl)acetonitrile (CAS 312325-74-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H11BrN2 and a molecular weight of 203.08 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrile group, bromine substitution, 2-(2-bromopyridin-4-yl)acetonitrile is typically white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 203.08 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-(2-bromopyridin-4-yl)acetonitrile meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
